Todd Owyoung Interview with Ride The Lighting

My friends and UK photographers Danny North and Ashley Bird just posted an interview with me on their music blog, Ride The Lighting. They asked about photo contracts, how I got my start, the importance of social networking as a photographer and more. 

You can read the full interview over on their site, as well as some other great interviews (including Ride The Lighting’s own Danny North) and a selection of great rock photography from Danny and Ash’s archives.

    Todd,

    How often do you get to use flash at shows? I’m pretty much universally told “no flash allowed”.

  2. I just read this interview yesterday. Love your history, tips, and cool statements as the one of my favourite music photogs, keep inspiring sir! :)
